Hello! My name is Spencer Charles also known as Latterdayhelp and I will be sharing this week what I liked about Come Follow Me. Let’s dive in!
Suggestion: when using The Come Follow Me book, use this page for my commentary and overview. You will see a quote from the Come Follow Me and my comments on it. First, look at the quote and when it appears in the book, read my commentary below the quote. Repeat until you finish the Come Follow Me for this week. Enjoy!!!
“But the Lord knew what was happening, and He revealed to His Prophet principles of peace and encouragement that would comfort the Saints—principles that can also help us when we face persecution, when our righteous desires go unfulfilled, or when we need a reminder that our daily afflictions will eventually, somehow, “work together for [our] good” (Doctrine and Covenants 98:3).”
This is important right here. Pay attention to what the principles of peace and encouragement God revealed to Jospeh. This revelation can still help us today!
“Ponder how your trials have worked together for your good and accomplished God’s purposes in your life.”
Trials help us and shape us into the person God wants us to be. Trials are hard for a reason, they help us become better! I would recommend when you face a trial, to constantly seek to find out what God is trying to teach you.
“The parable in Doctrine and Covenants 101:43–62 was given to explain why the Lord had allowed the Saints to be driven out of Zion. As you read these verses, do you see any similarities between yourself and the servants in the parable? You might ask yourself: Do I ever question the commandments of God? How might a lack of faith or commitment allow “the enemy” to have influence in my life? How can I show God that I’m “willing to be guided in a right and proper way for [my] salvation”? (see verses 63–65).”
I love all of these questions above. Peace answer them!
